Our 7-12 Program

7/8 Intermediate Program

February 2013

"ADSB 7 / 8 Program Applauded as a Success Story by Ontario College of Teachers"

The ADSB Intermediate Program is now available to Grade 7 and 8 students at all three of our Sault Ste Marie high schools – Korah, Superior Heights and White Pines. The program is also growing. We began in 2008 with 58 students in one school and as of October 2012, now have 233 students enrolled in the three intermediate programs. The intermediate program at all three schools (and soon at a fourth location in Desbarats at Central Algoma Secondary School) has been designed to give students a gradual, supervised transition into secondary school within a high school setting.

“Professionally Speaking”, the magazine of the Ontario College of Teachers (OCT), profiled ADSB’s 7-12 program in their December issue and applauded our program as a success story. Please see the link below titled "ALGOMA'S APPROACH" for the complete story.

In-school information sessions took place so that all Grade 6 and 7 students and their parents could find out more about the Algoma District School Board Intermediate Program. Teams from Korah, Superior Heights and White Pines visited their feeder schools so that grade 6 and 7 students could hear first hand from students and staff about the 7/8 Intermediate Program.

This was followed by similar sessions for parents at Parent Information Sessions at each school. To find out more about our growing 7-8 program, please contact our schools.
